We all have assets. Maybe they don’t seem as numerous as our liabilities, but we can identify our assets and work to accentuate them each day….
It becomes a challenge, one that we’ll enjoy, when we decide to emphasize our assets, watching how they change our lives. ~ Casey, Karen. A Life of My Own: Meditations on Hope and Acceptance (Hazelden Meditations Book 1). Hazelden Publishing. Kindle Edition.
Character defects have opposites
and those can be assets, related
in nature and able to be substituted
with practice. A defensive attitude
with work can become open to criticism.
A cynical person can become open-minded.
A manipulative person can become
candid, honest, non-controlling.
What is your most troublesome
defect of character?
I once was inclined to lie.
It would be easy to say that was in the past…
Really easy!!! But I’m learning to tell truth
even when that makes me look bad.
I’m learning to accept the challenge,
speaking truth when lying attracts me,
deciding to emphasize truth-telling,
watching how it changes my life
and makes it easier to reside in me.
What are your character defects?
What opposite can you substitute?
